Taken Aback

its been two whole years since you and i shared fears

two-thirty AM talking till sleep inside that diner

and now in your eyes i can't find you

sorry that i'm taken aback but how i am you never ask

and i don't need such sympathy but a care would be so nice to have

once in awhile you mean more to me than i could ever tell

so sorry that i'm taken aback but i just can't help it

small town we just ride

holding on to what we had inside

but now its never there so should i admit

do i believe i too am the culprit because in your eyes i can't find you

sorry that i'm taken aback but how i am you never ask

and i don't need such sympathy but a care would be so nice to have

once in awhile you mean more to me than i could ever tell

so sorry that i'm taken aback but i just can't help it

someday this will go away

and everything i am will just leave and fade

and i hope then you will understand

its not everything i am my dear only friend

so sorry that i'm taken aback but how i am you never ask

and i don't need such sympathy but a care would be so nice to have

once in awhile you mean more to me than i could ever tell

so sorry that i'm taken aback but i just can't help it
